I pre-ordered the same tomato/burrata manicottitti pictured above and it was one of the best pasta dishes I recall having in the air. Rich in flavor but surprisingly light. I note that there were 6 entree choices on the pre-order menu but for folks who hasn't pre-ordered the choices on board were down to 3: manicotti, asian noodle salad (with beef on the side) or enchiladas. While I don't have much of a sweet tooth I found the blueberry cheesecake delicious but surprisingly small in size. I realize US dessert portions when dining out are often grotesquely oversized, but this was the opposite extreme, almost doll-like in proportion.
Separately, I am disappointed that there is not a pre-order opportunity for the return trip. I wish that would become a uniformly available option.
